Abstract: On produit des carreaux de plâtre renforcés par des fibres selon un procédé de filtration en continu en une seule couche. A cet effet, on déshydrate sur un tamis sans fin une suspension de plâtre demi-cuit et de fibres contenant de la lignocellulose préparées par voie humide, de préférence en provenance de vieux papiers. Le plâtre utilisé a une masse volumique apparente supérieure à 950 g/l, s'il s'agit de plâtre demi-cuit alpha, ou supérieure à 700 g/l, s'il s'agit de plâtre demi-cuit beta. Dans le réseau RRSB, le grain du plâtre est incliné de plus de 40 degrés. Le plâtre demi-cuit beta est aridisé pendant la calcination. Les matières fibreuses sont déshydratées au préalable, avant d'être mélangées à la suspension de fibres et de plâtre, et sont rediluées avec de l'eau en provenance de la filtration. La déshydratation de la suspension est assistée pendant la dernière étape de la filtration sous vide par des vibrations ou des forces de cisaillement. L'invention concerne également des dispositifs de répartition de la suspension et de production des forces de cisaillement.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to an electronic ballast device for the control of gas discharge lamps. The device is comprised of a housing unit with electronic circuitry and related components. The device accepts a.c. power and rectifies it into various low d.c. voltages to power the electronic circuitry, and to one or more high d.c. voltages to supply power for the lamps. Both the low d.c. voltages and the high d.c. voltages can be supplied directly, eliminating the need to rectify a.c. power. The device switches a d.c. voltage such that a high frequency signal is generated. Because of the choice of output transformers matched to the high frequency (about 38 kHz) and the ability to change frequency slightly to achieve proper current, the device can accept various lamp sizes without modification. The ballast can also dim the lamps by increasing the frequency. The device can be remotely controlled.

Abstract: A back support element (1), preferably a lumbar support element, for motor-vehicle seats is generally hour-glass- or butterfly-shaped and is constituted by two symmetrical, complementary portions (3). Each of the portions is supported on one of the uprights (7) of the backrest (B) by means of a horizontal tie (4) which extends through a hole (11) in a flag-like element (8) articulated (9) on the outer end of the respective complementary portion (3). Traction means, such as flexible- or Bowden-cable controls (13) enable the free ends of the flag-like elements (8) to be pulled outwardly. As a result of the outward movement of the free ends of the flag-like elements (8) thus achieved, the outer ends of the complementary portions (3) are urged forwardly, modifying the horizontal profile of the support element (1) towards a more concave condition, so that the lateral restraint achieved by the backrest (B) is more marked.

Abstract: In one embodiment, the present method involves reducing turbulence and friction during extrusion by moving an extrusion die in a direction opposite to that of the extruded fiber and against a stationary preform arrangement inside the extrusion chamber. In another embodiment, an AgCl x Br 1-x  (x from 0 to 1) preform is doped with AgI or with a compound of the formula: -MY, wherein M is selected from Li, Na, K, Rb, Cs; or MY₂, wherein M is selected from Mg, Ca, Sr, Pb, Ba, Cd or Hg; and wherein Y is selected from Cl, Br, or I. The resulting fiber has a more even core/clad interface with a decrease in grain size towards the fiber surface and a grain texture elongated along the fiber axis. This structure together with strengthening and stabilizing dopants, added to the fiber material, gives decreased and stabilized optical losses and a higher elasticity of fibers.

Abstract: A device indirectly connects an outlet of a feed chamber of an optical fibre installation unit to an open end of a preformed tube, e.g. one that is pre-installed in a building, in order to enable one or more optical fibres to be introduced into the tube by the viscous drag of a flow of gas. The device comprises a flexible hose (6) one end of which can be connected to the feed chamber outlet, the hose having a number of insulated electrical conductors (36) extending along its length. At the other end of the hose is a coupler (1) which comprises a tubular spigot (8) for forming a spigot and socket connection to a connector associated with the tube, an electric safety switch (28) operatively coupled to the spigot and electrically connected to one of the conductors (36) which can be electrically connected to signal means associated with the feed chamber. The coupler (1) includes at least one electrically operated exhaust valve (30) electrically connected to another of the conductors (36) and can be connected to control means associated with the feed chamber so that when a connection has been made between the coupler (1) and a hose a signal can be sent to the control system to close the valves (30) and to commence introduction of the optical fibre(s). The coupler (1) may be provided with one or more triggers (12,14) to enable disconnection of the spigot (8) from the hose and to actuate an override switch that can override the safety switch (28) so that a further length of fibre can be introduced by the feed chamber once the coupler has been disconnected from the tube, thereby enabling the installed fibre to be terminated.
